This could be Alvin's last year as a Saint and it would be a massive mistake by Allen

It would be highly unusual for a RB. If he is able to (and he is an amazing athlete, a unicorn, who is able to absorb/diffuse the worst of hits) that would be a fantasic achievment. But I wouldn't expect a team to bet on it. If it happens, it will be on 1-2 year contracts, probably not what he is hoping for

I wouldn't either. Even if he has a great year this year, I'm not sure the market it going to be there for a 30 year-old RB to get more than $7 or $8 million for one year. That's why I was hoping maybe the Saints for give him two years at around $8 million with maybe $12 million guaranteed before the season started. It would really benefit both sides because past that AK is going to be lucky to get one year deals in the $5 million range.
